I still use gmail and drive for work but otherwise I’m never logged into anything google at home. Today when I tried to expand on a restaurant’s hours it wouldn’t let me see them without logging in, although it still worked in incognito. This restaurant screenshot is just a random other example I tried, but for the one I was actually checking google had the correct hours while the official website hasn’t been updated in awhile and had the old ones (website said they’re still open for dinner but they’ve only been doing lunch for a year or so now)
Because you’re not trained on it yet. New world sucks and so does the ally list from the phone companies. This is based on geospatial information and has been proven and is active in some counties working better and more efficiently. Everything you said is exactly what every dispatcher says when they get new tech you’re afraid to learn something new that’s better.
Those are the vibes you’re giving now. How about you actually try to explain how NG911 is gonna help with those scenarios I gave, because I don’t see any way the technologies involved that I’ve been told about are going to save me from having to manually look around on Google maps (or similar kind of service) to figure out where I need to enter a call.
Sure, I suppose they’ll be able to send me a picture or a video, instead of trying to describe it to me, but I’m still going to need to match that up to the real world somehow.
And sure, maybe our location data will be a bit better, but if they’re driving 5 minutes before pulling over to call, that location data won’t tell me what side of the road they were on when the accident actually happened.
I don’t have to because you obviously are one of the dispatchers who’s going to bitch and complain about every single point. And you’re also grossly underestimating how impactful this is. I’m a geospatial information scientist this is currently being established in the NE right now and it is helping better than old world systems. I’m not going to explain to you my job when there’s federal guidelines showing how this will be impactful. Go educate yourself I already got my degrees.
You’re a fucking corporation stooge who’s huffing your own farts.
There’s a lot of places where ng911 is going to be very helpful, this isn’t one of them and if you had any actual confidence that it would be helpful I this situation you’d be singing it’s fucking praises explaining how.
